He just said KTM is good to go, you'd assume Husky also.
So – Yamaha and JGR? Or the 250 teams?

They all kept riding and training in some sort off way, so 4 weeks most be enough. That’s allot of time.
Wonder who this is, but be the look of it they not really have allot of trust in their program/effort.
If you read between the lines; this is a direct shot at Roczen. If this happens middle of May, I widely assume that there will be some "BIG" names that will not be racing. I hope I am wrong, but I just do not see certain riders lining up for this. This will make the 1995 Las Vegas "lights out" round look like kids stuff. I want racing back; heck I want normalcy back as much as anybody. However, if certain "BIG' names riders don't line up to race middle of May, I hope FELD doesn't go through with this for several reasons. One, it will cause one of the biggest crap fests this sport has ever seen. Two, it will automatically discredit whomever is crowned champion due to not having everyone on the gate. In a perfect world, I would love to see all of this come to fruition. However, there are just two many variables in place for this plan to work.
In an interview with Weege a week or so ago, Tomac said he was riding 3 times a week still. Makes you wonder if it isn’t Kenny being reluctant, which would be understandable.
I didn't consider it originally, but if one of these guys actually contracted the virus, I could see how they wouldn't be pumped on getting back to racing that quickly. If I am Feld I want to see a signed doctors note that confirms this though, just to be sure they aren't using it to dodge something else.

I wonder if we see more riders posting something similar to this so they can clear themselves from all the speculation.
If it it is Kenny, can you blame him? With what his body has been through and being upfront about his immune system from all of the antibiotics he had to take, I can't blame him one bit.
This whole thing sucks for everyone and I want everyone there and for them all to be healthy.

On Pulp, Reedy made mention of some teams grumbling about "not being ready" as well, and he pretty much said they needed to STFU and line up to race (gotta love that!).
Personally, the only 450 rider I could think it might be is Kenny, and at that I HIGHLY doubt its him. Ken wants to win the championship just as bad as Eli and he too is a baller. He's one tough SOB. The only reason I have a slight thought it might be him is due to his lower immunity due to his surgeries. Outside that, there's no way I see him doing it.
If I had to bet, I'd say its either a 250 team or one of the non-factory 450 teams. Whoever it is, they need to grab their lunch pail and put on their hard hat and get back to it. I can't believe any team couldn't be ready to ride in 4 weeks time. that's crazy.
This shit isn't going away (completely) so might as well start to deal with it. Hunkering down was meant to slow the spread so to not overwhelm the healthcare systems, not eradicate it. The world is getting better at how to treat it, which is key. Vaccines will eventually come out, but realistically that won't be until 2021. Gotta start finding ways to deal with the reality of it all, and do it very responsibly.
Of course, he may be all in. I don't know.
